Hearts

When my mom was dying, the administration of Packemin (Suit was in charge then) was wonderful to me. They covered my classes whenever I had to leave and when I offered sick days to pay back the coverages, I was told to forget about it. I will never forget the kindness I was shown then and because of that, I never moaned, groaned or complained about a coverage or a proctoring assignment again.

Now, with another death in the family, I am experiencing the same sort of wonderful treatment.

I know not everyone who works at Packemin HS has had the same experiences I have had and I am sorry for those people. I've shared plenty of bad things about the place and now it is time to share the good.
